New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1 million contingent coupon callable buffered notes on two indexes

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., March 18 - Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1 million of contingent coupon callable buffered securities due March 19, 2024 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.75% if each index closes at or above its barrier level, 70% of the initial level, on the observation date for that period.

The notes will be callable at par plus the contingent coupon, if any, on any quarterly interest payment beginning March 19, 2015.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its 80% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1.25% for each 1% decline in the worst-performing index beyond the 20% buffer.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
